A delegatlon from the Commercial club , lioadal by 1uclld : Martin , Kerman Kountze , henry W. 1'nles acid W S. l'oppleton , appeared - peared before the city counell Mfonday hearing - ing a substltute ordlnmtce for the purchase of the water works plant , in the npinlou o ! the club the ardlnnncn proposed by the council committee contained certain grate defects vileh ) were hellcved to have been obviated In the new draft. Conslderohlo puhllh Interest was excited in the dl5eusslon and mt unusual number of rhnlts wuro ocettptgd when the Meeting teas railed to order by President Illnahom. In addition to trio representntlon of bust- Hess men there hits n committee from the l'rntral labor union , headed by George J. Itleffner and l'ICh Mi. Youngs , The council nnnounced Its rendluess to listen to It' ; guests and tine subject of nluniclpal own- ershlp was Introduced by Chairman Martin. Mr , Marlin said that. In the opinion of the club , the city had both the authority nud the desire to possess Its own water plant. "The committee , " said he , "has carefully ennsidered the ordinance already before the council and believes that It should be altered In several particulars. Thin rep rt wltfclt the committee hiss made to the club ! s a follows : "That the amount of bonds to he voted nhnuld he definitely limited in t h o proposi tine , and that no provision in the ordinance hhoultl bind the city to any particular mrthofl of nrgttlring or purchasing the tvnter works , but the city should be left free to pursue whatever method may ho lawfid and most econoudcal and feaaIhle. "Trial , taking into consideration all at- tahuthle eslllnntes of the value of the whole of the present water works plant , nail malc- ing duo allowance for depreciation , it is not sate to assume , for the purPouo of 1 , fixing the amount of bonds to be voted , that said plant is worth 1o exceed $3,000,000. " The committee therefore recommended that the stater works bond ordinance now ycuditg bolero the city council ho not passed. It also submitted a draft of a suL- atlttUu ordinance for the submission of a PropoSltIOn to vote $3,000,000 bonds "for thu appropriation or purchase of water works or land tberofor , " It provides for creation of a nlnking fund for the payment of principal and interest of the bands out of tire net proceeds , profits and revenues of the water y , works over std above the expenses of op. oratlun and maintenance. Ordiuuiee " . 'untnd. Mr. Martin then read the ordinance fa. t ored by the chub , whtcit was framed on the I model of the one already before the council , differing from it , however , in several ! m portant particulars. The amount to be appropriated - propriated for the purchase was reduced i from $5,000,000 to $3,000,000 , that being , In the opinion of the club , all that t1to property - erty was worth. The rate of Interest , which was previously fixed at 3 per cent was raised to a possible limit of 4. Mr , Martin explained - plained in this connection that It was inn- possible to foresee what financial conditions „ might prevail when the bonds were offered for nabo and the whole project might juts- carry through fixing the rate too low , It ' The third change was In the method by which the purchase night be attained. The old ordinance specified solely that advantage should be taken of section 14 of compiled ordinances , which reserved the right to rho city to buy the plant at any time after twenty years. Thu ordinance presented by the club left the method of purchase , whether by that section or the right of i eminent domain , in the hands of the mayor i and council. In remarking upon this point r Ittr , l'oppleton said he would not assume to choose one way rather than the other , huh Lrlloved that both should be left open in order that the tvlser course might ho pursued , lie strongly urged that the proposition - sition should ho submitted to the voters at i once , because , in his opinion , there was at iI I present a happy conjunction of opinion In i favor of the project , both on the part of li the people and their representatives in the council , CI1l' At iriit'y'X I11rne. t t City Attorney Connell took Issue wIth Mr. Pappletun nail said that , In his opinion , the ' council would be embarking on a sea of , ; uncertainty in approving at ordinance in which no method of purchase was favored. While le did not believe that section Ll 'wits worth the space it consumed in the compiled ordinances , Mr. Council was in favor of some dctlnlte molhod being outlined - lined , 't ' Another particular in tt'hlcli the new or- dinnnco differed from dlto old was In the , ' snore general tenons mnployod as to the t ) property to bo acquired. The substitute nl- lows tin money to be used for "the appropriation - priation or purchase of a tvnter works or land thterefor , " giving the privilege of purchasing - chasing the present plant or any other which may ho on the market. The now ordinance also provides for the creation lot a sink- log fund for tire pavntent of principal and II interest of the bonds out of the net pro- , profits nail roveuues of the vntcr I' ' works over aid abo'o the expenses of op- 'radon anti maintenance. ! , fine for Slnlantr I'oud. Thu 1111111 to establish a sinking fund was heartily endorsed by Comptroller Wcstberg. t Ito advocated the aiPolainent of a shik- r lug fund commission , a body ttii lch , he I ' said , has done excellent service In other cities when largo amounts were Involved. I I As much as $100,000 olio ld ho set aside J ! every year , said M1. Westberg , and should l i Ito devoted to the purpose of taking up the healed Indebtedness , i \Vlth reference to the atbstituto ordlnnnce 1' Mr. Klefiner of the Corral Labor union said it met the approval of the committee nppolnted by the Central union. In his opln- Ion It would also ho endorsed by the 10,000 f ! organized man who were embodied in the various unions of the city. Fred M. Youngs cf the snare committee took a similar 'po- sition nail especially endorsed the reduction of the proposed bond Isstio from $5,000,000 to $3,000,000. Tito former sum , lie said , ! might very easily appear tco large and might moan the defeat of the vroposltien. Several others vero heard on tie subject.

In general committee meeting yesterday afternoon the council held n prolonged dis cursion of the voting machine projert and the merits of the sample now in the city wcro explained by a representative of the Standard Voting Machine company of loch- ester , N , Y. The agent made a proposfth n to sell forty narhtittea to the city at $ a0O each , taking iii return iitatallmeuts , as the money was saved to the city. The annual saving effected by the innehine tm eiectlons of the county , city and School board ens estimated at $3,000. A committee of the Commercial club was present and on invitation W , S. I'oppleton expressed the opinion of that organization regarding the project. Mr. I'opplelon sabl that while he was by no means opposed to voting machines mil principle he considered - ered It III advised to Intrcduce them at this time. "It is reasonably certain , " he said , "that the people relit ho called upon at the next election to vote on a bond issue for the purchase of thin water works. In a matter of such Imporlaee it would ho unwise to adopt any method which ought be brought Into question cn legal grouMls. There are a number of paints ht the machines whteli might give rise to contention in case dissntlsficd parties wished to contest lhn election. For example - ample , the law provides that there shall bl a voting district for every 300 voters or fraction thereof , which would not be provided - vided by the purchase of forty machines. 't'hen there is a lack of uniformity between - tween the nuuhlno anieindment and the Australian ballot law. Thu former makes no provision for illiterate voters , as In the case of the Auatralian system. "The two laws lack uniformity In other respects which might throw the election under a cloud , The Australian law provides - vides for three judges and two clerks to each precinct , while the ameminent contemplates - templates no clerks whatever.I'hen interests - ests of such magnitude are at stake it is not the proper time , in our opinion , to venture upon such an experiment" No action was taken on the resolution and contract introduced at the meeting Saturday afternoon , The committee previously - viously appointed , consisting of Burmester , Mercer and Lobeck , will meet with a similar - ilar delegation from the school hoard today - day to consider further on the matter. The county commissioners have displayed small Interest in the project and the other olllcial bodies will act without their co-operation.
